This is at the plant now. Out early 2017. Can't say enough good things about this band but I will let "Ian" tell you what you need to hear today (and for the rest of your lives).YÚ LP (LUNGS-085) by DREAMDECAY

Friday, October 14, 2016

Forever and Ever, the debut album from Pacific Northwest power-trio PRIVATE ROOM, is a terse and tense record. With its discordantly bent notes, shots of industrial clang, atonal noise washouts, and boneheaded punk, the album cultivates a forbidding atmosphere for the sardonic lyrics to comfortably reside. With stunning album art provided by Justin Gallego (DREAMDECAY), the stark future-vision of PRIVATE ROOM is immediately apparent. Although a charred cynicism colors Forever and Ever, the music itself elbows at the boundaries of whatever genre - punk, hardcore, noise-rock, or any micro-niche thereof -one might apply to it. It suggests that patterns, be they imposed from above or within, are binds to be broken.

Looks like we are going to be doing an LP for Houston's LACE in the not too distant future. Writing has begun. Until then, enjoy their demo (coming soon to the ILR shop). Favorite track on this is 'Poison Drum' - you gotta love that Reggaeton beat!Demo by Lace
